Accepting comma as decimal spearator (AGAIN)

Hi, I have reported this issue before... Many countries in Europe (maybe in the rest of the world also?) uses comma as decimal separator. When entering coordinates to update a myst/unknown or any other type of cache that needs coordinate update, the system will convert it in a strange way (see attached images as example, it's MY traditional, but you can see what it does to the coordinates after pressing SUBMIT). I thought this was sorted after my last post about that...? Prefferably you make the system accept commas, as well as dots, as decimal separators when entering new coordinates. OR provide an error message saying that commas aren't accepted when changing coordinates. Now it alters the coordinates and it's not always so easy to see that if you are not aware of this fault in your system. Usually I use copy/paste and if it is coordinates from a fellow cacher in Europe, it might be with a comma and then it's easy to miss that the system alters the coordinates seemingly randomly...
